Background

With a national reach from their base in Pencoed, RockIT are ranked 53 in the world for top IT Support companies and placed in the last three Fast Growth 50. They have helped thousands of small and medium-sized businesses gain peace of mind through a diverse range of services from secure cloud and data services through to printer leasing and disaster recovery.

Limegreentangerine has worked closely with RockIT since their beginnings in 2007, creating, managing and iterating their brand and website.

RockIT powered

Rockit needed an updated online presence as the old site no longer reflected the growth of the business or the extended product range they had to offer to prospective clients. Our aim was to create an all-singing-all-dancing website that showcased the depth of services and provided a variety of ways to stay in touch with customers and online visitors.

Bells and whistles

RockIT’s diverse IT services meant a large volume of detail was available to demonstrate and showcase their expertise. A stylised icon set was created to represent each service. We devised these icons to animate with interaction, creating dynamism on content rich pages.

A suite of illustrations were created to explain various aspects of their services. The illustrations were designed in an SVG format to ensure they would be pixel sharp on mobile devices as well as on larger screen. Where possible we subtly animated the illustrations as the visitor scrolls down the page.

The site has also been scattered with parallax panels, boasting specially commissioned studio photography of staff interacting with service iconography contrasting with shots taken of the team in their office environment. These show RockIT's key assets: its staff and their skills.

Behind the servers

A video was commissioned for the homepage to show the people behind the servers and motherboards, reflecting the young and dynamic company at the other end of the phone. A dedicated careers section was also created to show what life at RockIT is like for a staff member, with the aim of attracting some bright new stars.

I can without hesitation say that we have always been blown away by Limegreentangerine’s approach to design, and they have been with us every step of the way. They are an example to others of how to attract and more importantly keep clients in a highly competitive market place. We are continually asked “who are your designers” and this is down to the effort the design team put into every project. Rob Dance, Managing Director
